Dog Behavior Training July 5th, 2008 犬行為訓練 2008年7月五日 Why the Use of a Training Dog Collars Sometimes Counterproductive為什麼使用培訓的狗頸圈,有時適得其反
Dog trainers, especially those who are not professionals in the field, usually confuse dog training with control.犬培訓,特別是那些誰不專業領域,通常是混淆狗的訓練與控制。 In any dog-man pair, the human always have the need to gain control.在任何狗人一雙,人總是有需要增益控制。 This is not really bad except that sometimes, the man abuses the privileged of control.這是確實不壞,但有時,這名男子的特權行為的控制。
Dog training collars provide that control.狗訓練衣領規定,控制。 While the intention is normally good- to remove unwanted (but instinctual) behaviors of the dogs for example- the process of training is sometimes incorrect and abusive of the dog’s weaknesses and the tools used for training are not well-adapted to the needs of the dog.雖然意圖通常是良好的,以消除不必要的(但本能)行為的狗例如,在訓練過程中有時是不正確和虐待的狗的弱點和工具用於培訓沒有得到很好適應的需要狗。
We, humans, often forget that dogs are individuals too.我們,人類往往忘記了狗是個人了。 Some dogs are very aggressive and hard to control, some are funny and gives us much comfort and joy, others are just laid back and refuse to undergo training and some are naturally fast learners while others are slow learners.有些狗是非常積極的和難以控制,有些滑稽,給了我們很多安慰和喜悅,其他人只是悠閒,並拒絕接受培訓和一些自然快速的學習者,而其他人學得慢。
Training collars were invented to gain enough control over the canines, however some people fail to adhere to the basic principles of these tools.訓練項圈發明獲得足夠的控制犬,但一些人不遵守的基本原則,這些工具。 Choke or chain collars, for example, are one of the very first tools invented to help lessen the tension between man and dog.扼流圈或連鎖衣領舉例來說,是一個非常首先發明的工具,以幫助減少之間的緊張關係人與狗。
But there are people who overuse and misuse the choke collars.但是,有些人誰過度使用和濫用窒息衣領。 Some handlers are so harsh that many dogs experience neck damages and some even choke to death.有些處理是如此惡劣,許多狗的脖子損害的經驗,有些甚至窒息死亡。 In short the use of this type of collars is very dangerous, if not counter-productive.總之使用這種類型的衣領是非常危險的,如果不是適得其反。
Some handlers, on the other hand, lack sufficient knowledge on the specific collars that would work well with their dogs.有些從業員,另一方面,缺乏足夠的知識的具體衣領將工作以及他們的狗。 For example, the popular choice of collar these days are the electronic dog collar due to its remote access to dogs which provide continuous “training” for even when the owner is not around.例如,流行的選擇衣領這些天是電子狗頸圈由於其遠程訪問狗提供持續的“訓練” ,甚至當主人不在身邊。 While this may be a popular alternative to old fashioned dog training collars, many people just don’t completely understand its disadvantages.雖然這可能是一種流行的替代老式的警犬訓練項圈,很多人只是不完全理解其缺點。
There are some very mundane reasons as to why collars could be, at times, counterproductive.也有一些非常世俗的原因,為什麼可以領,有時適得其反。 For one, there are people who just don’t take the extra time to check if the collar is fit or not.其中之一是,有些人誰不採取額外的時間來檢查,如果是白領或不適合。 With improper fitting, the collar could pinch the skin (especially the Martingale collar) and scratch it causing burning spots.不當擬合,衣領可以捏的皮膚(特別是鞅白領)和它造成從頭燃燒點。
These are very uncomfortable to dogs as much as having skin lesions would make someone feel irritated.這些都是非常不舒服狗多有皮膚損傷會使人感到惱火。 The rule of thumb for getting the right fit of collar for your dog is to allow two to three inches gap between the attached collar and the neck.法治的拇指為獲得合適的衣領為你的狗是允許兩個的3英寸之間的差距十分衣領和脖子上。
Another reason why dog collars could be potentially counterproductive is that they work on the principle of pain and fear and not really on discipline.另一個原因狗項圈可能會產生適得其反的是,他們的工作的原則,疼痛和恐懼,而不是真正的紀律。 Electronic training collars work by sending electronic shocks to the dog wearing it or unpleasant sound that will discourage the dog from barking.電子培訓工作的項圈發送電子衝擊狗穿或不愉快的聲音,將阻止從狗叫聲。
Even when it proves to be efficient in delivering its purpose- to distract the dog from barking- the results are not as good.即使當它被證明是有效地提供它的目的,來分散狗的叫聲,結果並不好。 Why?為什麼? Because the dog starts to lose its confidence.由於狗開始失去信心。
Quick fixes for behavior control are more often than not tempting to use and leads to overdependence to control devices.快速修復行為控制往往不是誘人的使用,並導致過度控制裝置。 While doing it the long way usually proves to be more valuable.雖然做了很長的路通常被證明是更有價值。
Therefore, before one chooses a dog training collar, it is recommended to do your research first so your dog’s comfort would not be compromised.因此,在選擇一個狗訓練衣領,建議做您的研究第一次讓您的狗的舒適性不會受到損害。
